Chemistry and mineralogy of clay minerals in Asian and Saharan dusts and the implications for iron supply to the oceans [PDF]
Mineral dust supplied to remote ocean regions stimulates phytoplankton growth through delivery of micronutrients, notably iron (Fe). Although attention is usually paid to Fe (hydr)oxides as major sources of available Fe, Fe-bearing clay minerals are ...
